I Can Do with Benjamin Lee

Happy New Year! I hope you are off to a great New Year! The best is yet to come. As we move into a New Year, it's important to have an optimistic mindset. Let's get after it. 

In this episode, I share with you the period in my life when I met my wife Nikki, our wedding, and my diagnosis with HCM. Getting this diagnosis was a real game changer! I'm thankful I'm still here. 

When life throws us curve balls, it's important that we respond the right way. How we respond will make all the difference. 

Every day is a blessing. Thanks for listening.

In this episode, I read to your Chapter 3 of my book, "Life Beyond the Scale." If you haven't had the opportunity to listen to the previous chapters, go back and check them out! 

It's interesting how a meeting, a conversation, or a cup of coffee with someone can change your life. I believe in the Providence of God! I believe God is working. This cup of coffee would take me a path that I couldn't imagine. Have you ever had an experience like this?

In this Chapter, I discuss some of the family dynamics in my upbringing. 

Growing up, my father was not around that much. When I look back, I can see the huge gaping hole it left in me and the family. 

Dads, we need to be in the picture. 

I also discuss how we want to go about learning in life. We can LIVE and LEARN or we can LEARN and Live! 

This becomes important as men and especially with our health.

I CAN DO...SO CAN YOU! 

Chapter 3 will be released on Tuesday December 28th! 

As we draw closer to the new year, I thought we could do something a little different! I want to read to you my book, "Life Beyond the Scale." Many are looking to make some healthy changes in 2022. Many often struggle with weight gain especially during the holiday season. It can be easy to get caught in a vicious cycle with the dreaded SCALE! 

This book is all about helping us to grow in our Faith, in our Fitness, and BEYOND THE SCALE. Each Podcast episode, I will be sharing with you a part of the book. This episode I am reading the introduction. Let's go Beyond the Scale. 

Everyone wants their dream career! Is it possible to really find your dream job or career? Some say "Yes" and some say "No!" How does one go about identifying work that will be suitable for them?  How can one put themselves in the best possible position to excel in a particular career?  In this episode, I share with you a test I took earlier in the year that was really eye-opening for me. It solidified some things for me about what I'm currently doing. It's a great tool high school graduates and others should utilize when considering job opportunities.  What I discuss is the Johnson O Connor Foundation Aptitude Test. You can check them out at https://www.jocrf.org/about.  I discuss what this test is.  The benefit of taking the test if you are graduating or looking for a new career.  The cost and duration of the test.  Be sure to check out The Still Waters with Julie Adams!
